Looking good, thanks mm75!
I was wondering if there could be a slight elaboration on the description that is currently disseminated on the
SHS Download Centre and the main page as well. This description currently reads:
The player travels to the town of Soubar, where the Bhaalspawn's powers are sorely needed.
This makes me think: what is Soubar? What's wrong with Soubar? (without too much spoiling involved, of course, but currently it is completely non-descript) And 'the Bhaalspawn's powers are sorely needed' sounds rather inaccurate to me, unless that is what is intended. Are they specifically looking for a Bhaalspawn? A Bhaalspawn I think would imply fear, distrust, contempt, and perhaps even envy amongst the people. 'Help is sorely needed' works better, but is so generic. Perhaps you could spice this up a little.
2) Shadows Over Soubar was intended for a party who are skilled. A group of 5 adventurers with a level of 17-20 and a combined HP total of about
220 should have little difficulty completing all the quests, however there are two difficult battles which may give the party some difficulty.
Cool. Is editing allowed? I was thinking that last sentence about the difficult battles could instead be something along the lines of 'However, be prepared for some challenging battles.'
3) All the original NPCs as well as the new NPCs interact in new ways through out the expansion. Nalia and the new NPC Charlotte are particularly
interesting when in the same group.
We could reword slightly, but nice.
4) There is one particularly difficult quest-- that of the hunting for a spy. If you have difficulty with this quest, I suggest finding Charlotte the
NPC to get additional help.
Hmm, it is semi-spoiler. Not sure if this should be included, as it is, as you say, a tip.
5) During the final battle for Soubar, it would be wise for your PC to be at least 18th level or suffer dire consequences. This shouldn't be too much
of a problem, as long as you haven't made a bee-line straight to the final battle. [/b]
Another tip I guess. There is an SoS walkthrough available at Sorcerer's Place. Are these tips included in the walkthrough?
Thanks a heap for doing this.
